SAN FRANCISCO, CA - Prezi, the presentation platform that helps people connect more powerfully with their audiences, today launched Prezi for Android, giving the more than one billion Android users worldwide the ability to access their presentations anytime, anywhere.

“Our users have been asking for an Android app for a long time, as they spend more and more time away from their offices.” said Peter Arvai, CEO and co-founder of Prezi. “With Prezi for Android, you can have all your presentations in your pocket, so you can pitch and refine your story anytime.”

IDC recently predicted that Android owns approximately 80 percent of the smartphone market. Prezi now enables these users worldwide to practice, pitch, and share their stories, no matter where they are.

Key benefits and features of the Prezi for Android app include:

- Cloud Syncing - Always have the most current version of your prezi, no matter which device it was last worked on.

- Remote mobile presenting - Invite up to 30 people to a presentation that you can deliver even away from your office.

- On-the-go access anytime, from anyplace - Full access to saved prezis, prezis found online and those shared by others.

- Offline access to recently used prezis and to other prezis for inspiration - No Internet connection required so you can practice on the way to your presentation using your Android device.

Phil Jones, Managing Director at Brother UK, uses prezi for both internal presentations and brainstorming, as well as for his busy keynote schedule. He said, “Life before Prezi meant that I needed to email the PowerPoint file to the conference organiser a week before the keynote, and couldn’t make changes.

Now I am free to review and make changes right up until the last minute before I walk on stage, which really gives me the creative freedom when and where it suits me.”

The app received a warm welcome in Australia, where Prezi launched a beta version several months ago that was downloaded far more than anticipated. Dr Naomi Findlay, founder of the International Institute of Home Staging is one of these beta testers.

“Presentations are a key part of my job,” Dr Findlay said. “With smartphone screens growing substantially in size, I believe viewing presentations on the go will become more common. Having just moved from iPhone to Android, it was great to see that Prezi was available and it’s proved invaluable to be able to view my presentations on the move using my smartphone.”

Clove Technology have a competition running from today up until March 31st. It isn't going to be for those tech minded people out there but you may know someone who would use the devices.

There is also an Android twist to it as two of the handsets they sell run our favourite mobile OS, Android. The competition is for the Doro range of devices that are aimed at those with hearing or sight impediments or who just want a phone for calling and texting.

The Android Doro phones are the Doro Liberto 820 and 810, both have all the fantastic features that Doro offer such as the assistance button to something as simple as the charging cable having a raised profile so you know which way to connect your charger and phone.

The competition involves you buying any Doro handset and that puts your name in the running to have the cost refunded. The full terms are available on the Clove website via the link below.

One other great feature from Doro is the My Doro Manager app. Here you can set ringtones, add contacts and even download apps from your phone to your relative's Doro handset.

To take a look at their Doro range and to be in with a chance just head on over to their blog here - http://goo.gl/BYrYcv where you'll get more info and to the bottom of their post is a link to their range of Doro handsets.

Sony has confirmed that it will shortly release the Xperia Z4 Tablet. The device has made an appearance on the official Xperia Lounge application, before being swiftly pulled. We do not know the full specs of the device, but the screenshot confirms it will have a 2K display, “the latest ultra ...

The LG Watch Urbane is up on the Clove Technology website. No price yet but that will be with us come Mobile World Congress. Don't know how much you'd be prepared to pay but reckon this will be in the region of about £300, probably way out but the target market will probably have the cash to spare.

Watches are jewellery and I don't know how bothered the fashion conscious will take to this.

The Apple Watch will more than likely sell lots because Apple will tell their customers they need it, remember Harry Henfield and this clip - http://goo.gl/PTpCN0 - it's pretty much like that.

UK based Android blog hoping to bring all the news for Android users here in the UK. You won't find us on a website, after a trial with Google + we have decided to use what has to be a more fun, interactive and easier way to post. Most of my 'blogging' will be done using nothing more than a Nexus 7 3G tablet, great for posting on the go and takes full advantage of all the services Google has to offer. I may also use the super Nexus 4 to add content,
